Precautions while generating Backup of your website

Having a website is good but, generating the backup is also important and needed to generated every week or 10 days (I recommend) so that your content can be protected when site crashes or fail. These 2 words "site crash", no blogger wants to hear. The generating backups in regular intervals can help you from recovering the damage up to an extent. Sorry, but not totally.

If you are new in the blogging world and just posting articles daily, you will need backups also as a maintenance work. First of all, avoid any such things which brings spam to your site or any malware. They are the major causes in crashing the site. Now, How to generate backup and what precautions should be taken? So, that you will not repeat the same mistake as i did first time while generating backup of my site and fell in a mess or you can say out of space provided by the provider.

Follow steps to generate backup:

1. Login to your Cpanel of a site. Enter http://yoursitename.com/cpanel and fill the username provided and password taken.

2. Click on the Backup option (See the below image) and the backup window in cpanel will be open. They will contain different backups for your site like full backup, home directory backup or database backups.

3. Now, Click on the Home Directory Backup option provided and marked in the above image. The backup in .zip format starts downloading in your PC.

Precautions:

Now, the most important thing that a new blogger should not do is that he should not press the Full Website Backup option provided above the Home Directory backup. As, it generates the full backup of your site and doubles the provided usage space of your website. It just creates the redundancy of the data available in the directory and can create mess, if you are owing less space for your blog.

Buzzer interface with 8051 microcontroller

Buzzer  is a electronic device that converts the electronic signal into buzzing noise, that is applied to it. It can be used as electronic bell or as quiz buzzer in many applications around us. Here, i world like to discuss the interfacing of a small buzzer with 8051 microcontroller and how different projects can be constructed. Buzzer Interfacing: This project shows the interface with AT89S52 microcontroller to a buzzer. When a push button is pressed, the buzzer will get ON and OFF ( number of times set in the code ) and then stops. Circuit Diagram: - The port P1 of the microcontroller is connected to buzzer. This type of connection is possible, if the current requirements of the buzzer is not more than 20mA. The output is in current source mode so that buzzer will turn ON when the output of the port is logic LOW. Switch is connected to port P3 which remains at logic HIGH by pull up resistor.  Code: #include "REG52.h" #define buz P1 sbit SW=P3^0; long i...

Comparison Chart Between 8051, 8052, 8031and 8751

8051 is a popular 8-bit microcontroller and has been used in many applications since Intel introduced it. Many 8051 architecture are produced by Triscend, Intel, Atmel, Philips, Infineon (Siemens), ISSI, and Max Corp. Today, 8051 microcontrollers may not be popular but, the 8051 architecture is still popular and employed in thousands of embedded applications. This 8-bit architecture has been different segments such as 8052, 8051, 8751 and 8031 . 8052 is the super-set of 8051 and 8031 is the memory-less microcontroller hence, it has interfaced with external ROM. Whereas, 8751 chip has only 4Kbytes of on chip UV-EPROM. Everyone knows about the general 40-pin microcontroller i.e. 8051 introduced by Intel in 1980s and consists of serial communication pins, Timer, Interrupts, RAM, ROM. It has 4 ports and each port has 8 pins, total 32 pins and other 8 pins for other purposes. 8052 is the super-set of 8051 that consists of 8K bytes of internal RAM (4K in 8051), 256 by...

Different ways to generate delays in 8051

The delay length in 8051 microcontroller depends on three factors: The crystal frequency the number of clock per machine the C compiler. The original 8051 used 1/12 of the crystal oscillator frequency as one machine cycle. In other words, each machine cycle is equal to 12 clocks period of the crystal frequency connected to X1-X2 pins of 8051. To speed up the 8051, many recent versions of the 8051 have reduced the number of clocks per machine cycle from 12 to four, or even one. The frequency for the timer is always 1/12th the frequency of the crystal attached to the 8051, regardless of the 8051 version. In other words, AT89C51, DS5000, and DS89C4x0 the duration of the time to execute an instruction varies, but they all use 1/12th of the crystal's oscillator frequency for the clock source. 8051 has two different ways to generate time delay using C programming, regardless of 8051 version. The first method is simply using Loop   program function in which Delay() funct...
